The plight of Houston's estimated 1 million homeless animals has been documented as part of a community effort to bring attention to Houston's animal overpopulation crisis.

Three nonprofit agencies are supporting the project. DiverseWorks, Barrio Dogs and Box 13 are collecting photos of dogs living on Bayou City streets. Supporters took part by uploading photos to the exhibit Flickr group here.

Disposable cameras were also given out to make sure as many people as possible were able to participate, a news release said.

A two-week exhibition will follow entitled, "No One's Dog." It will show off the best submitted photos and runs from July 26 to Aug. 9 at DiverseWorks, 4102 Fannin Street in Houston.

City of Houston officials have estimated that there are over a million stray animals living on the streets with all area shelters at capacity.

The Bureau for Animal Regulation and Care (BARC) was granted an extra $2.9 million by City Council in its 2015 budget. The money will fund 12 additional animal control officers and 10 support staff.
